✦ Synopsis


A new total synthesis of the novel lactone natural product octalactin A is described. The key step involves the facile construction of the eight-membered lactone core via ring-closing metathesis (RCM). This oxocene was elaborated to give the powerful antitumor agent octalactin A.

The first examples of ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reactions on allyl-and vinylsulfonamide templates 1 and 2 catalyzed by the Grubbs ruthenium alkylidene 3 are described. The rate of cyclization of these reactions are sensitive to simple olefin substitution. These RCM reactions yield novel cyclic a
